Imagine stepping onto a shooting range in Bexar County, Texas, where the crack of gunfire isn’t just about hitting bullseyes—it’s a rallying cry for the Second Amendment. That’s exactly what’s happening as Gun Owners of America Texas endorses Rep. Tony Dorazio (HD-122) and Rep. Marc LaHood (HD-121), two battle-tested incumbents inviting constituents to Meet Your Representative at the Range. This isn’t some stuffy town hall with folding chairs and stale coffee; it’s a hands-on defense of our rights, where lawmakers prove their pro-2A bona fides by standing shoulder-to-shoulder with voters, rifles in hand. In a state where the Legislature has fended off waves of urban gun-grab schemes from Austin’s progressive fringes, events like this cut through the noise, reminding us that real leadership smells like gun oil and freedom.
These races in Bexar County—San Antonio’s sprawling suburbs—are make-or-break for Texas’s gun rights fortress. Dorazio and LaHood aren’t newcomers to the fight; they’ve voted down red-flag laws, permitless carry expansions, and every other incremental assault on the castle doctrine. With Democrats eyeing a flip in this purple district amid national anti-gun fervor post-2024 elections, retaining these seats could shield Texas from the slippery slope toward California-style registries or AWBs. GOA Texas’s endorsement isn’t handed out lightly—it’s a seal of approval from the no-compromise wing of the movement, signaling to donors, activists, and range rats that these guys have the spine to buck party pressure when Big Gun Control comes knocking.
For the 2A community, this is more than a local dust-up; it’s a blueprint for victory nationwide. By blending brass tacks politics with literal brass casings, Dorazio and LaHood are humanizing the fight, turning abstract rights into tangible range time. If you’re in Texas, grab your AR, RSVP to the range day, and show up—because in the battle for the Second Amendment, the side that shoots straight wins. Head to GOA’s site for details and let’s keep the Lone Star State flying the Gadsden flag high.
